SmartPlant Instrumentation, also known as INtools, is an advanced instrumentation engineering software developed by Intergraph. It acts as a centralized platform for creating, managing, and maintaining instrumentation data used in Engineering, Procurement, and Construction (EPC) projects.

SPI training helps participants gain the skills required to efficiently use the software for instrumentation design, loop creation, data processing, documentation, and maintaining consistency across project workflows.

This training is ideal for Instrumentation Engineers, EPC professionals, Designers, Technicians, Plant Engineers, Project Engineers, and professionals involved in industrial automation and instrumentation projects.

Basic knowledge of instrumentation engineering, plant design, and industrial processes is recommended. Familiarity with general engineering software tools is also beneficial.

Training usually covers: System and project overview Instrument index and documentation Loop creation and loop diagrams Specifications and hookups Calculations and Foundation Fieldbus External Spec Editor Data management and reporting

The duration may vary depending on training modules, but most programs range from 20 to 40 hours or 1 to 4 weeks.
